Hi Yoann, Vijay, Some thoughts here... The upgrade to v3.4.3 was rejected [1] due to a few minor feature additions. In this case it may be lower risk to take an upgrade rather than backporting a 34 kLOC patch. I think we should avoid v3.5.0 due to the number of regressions reported [2]. v3.4.4 is an option. We can then see how many CVEs remain open and decide what to do about them. The onus here is on contributors, not on Yoann as stable maintainer. To go ahead we would need some investigation, testing and a proposal to the TSC to approve the update as an exception to our usual stable policy.
